<font size="2" face="Arial, Verdana, Sans-Serif">Yes Joe Lee's defenses the past two years have been horrible, but he has had absolutely no talent. I'll give you a perfect example of this. One of there starting CB's was a redshirt senior JC transfer. In high school my senior year I scorced him for 2 TD's of 50 or more yards while he was playing man D on me. One play was a quick slant and the other was a corner were I faked him out of his jock and had 6 yards of seperation. This guy would not have started on my high school team that went 7-5 with only 2 D1 players on it in 5A in MS. Someone like that should not get to play in a D1 game much less start. OK I admit I used to have some quicks, but not that kind of quicks. The only legit players Joe Lee had were Mario Haggan, senior LB, and a true freshman that played safety. Rob Morgan started there for 4 years and he is a smaller Muyers with less speed, not nearly as smart, and can't bring the wood. Joe Lee's defense was seriously depleted because they were trying to switch from all JUCO players to 4 year players and all of their talent were freshman and redshirt freshman. Joe Lee was the best DC in the SEC and the only reason he got fired was ole Jackie had to do major house cleaning to keep his job for one more year.

Happy Holidays
 
Mississippi and others, thanks for some explanation about Joe Lee. He has been a favorite of mine for a long, long time. I really was afraid however (as previously mentioned) that he was no longer effective. There were games in the past that I picked simply based on the fact that he was the DC. Will he have opportunity anywhere to prove his worth again to those who now doubt him? I hope so. My hometown is Columbus, Ga., which I think is his also and I have been so proud of him through the years. Was afraid at one time UGAG was going to hire him and for a long time held out hope of his one day coming to the flats. Sorry for the ignorance, but where is he now? By the way (you may have said) but did you get to play in college? Thanks for the post(s).
